‘Optimism’ for Maddie answers

-

PROSECUTOR­S say they “remain optimistic” they will solve the Madeleine McCann mystery.

Hans Christian Wolters says a German probe into prime suspect Christian Brueckner, 44, is running “at full speed”.

And he said a new TV documentar­y “may well help to clear up the case”.

Mr Wolters said: “Even if the public does not notice it much, our investigat­ions in the Maddie case continue to run at full speed. We still assume Christian B killed Madeleine.”

Next month marks 14 years since the three-yearold disappeare­d from Praia da Luz, Portugal.

Brueckner is serving seven years after raping a 72-year-old woman in the town in 2005.

The Danish TV probe will be screened in the accused’s native Germany on April 28.

Mr Wolters added: “We remain optimistic and hopeful that we will be able to solve the crime.”
